Reviews
’Catarina Cardoso has produced an innovative, insightful and critical analysis of Brazil’s extractive reserves, now a major instrument of conservation policy in Amazonia. It will make a stimulating read for all those interested in the role of environmental policy in protecting tropical rain forests for national and global benefit.’ Anthony Hall, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK ’The value of Catarina Cardoso’s book is that she provides telling examples of what works and what does not work, in Amazonian development. This is a case study at the global scale...’ Professor Michael Redclift, Kings College London, UK 'This book is a must for all those involved in the Amazon forest: researchers, planners, policy-makers and the interested public. Its interesting research approach makes it most usable for classes on interdisciplinary aspects of interactions between humans and their environment.' International Journal of Sustainable Development
